Quick Facts:
Yes Guardiola's side won 6 Titles in his first year! (Many people still believe Chelsea were robbed)
Luis Enrique's side will more than likely win 5! (Barcelona had played the Tuesday before this match and the team was obviously drained and tired).
Some will say, Guardiola's side were easier on the eyes with their Tiki-Taka style. However, this current Barcelona side can hurt you in more ways. Luis Enrique's side defend better, they counter-attack when possible, and they continue to rack up possession against every team they play.
So what are the differences?
"Tactically, Barca generally stuck to a 4-3-3 shape throughout the season, playing high up the pitch and pressing from the front. Henry stayed wide on the left, with Messi having more license to come in off the right wing, knowing that the energetic Dani Alves would be providing width. In midfield, Iniesta played furthest forward, Xavi was the calm, methodical ‘link’, whilst Yaya Toure sat deep infront of the centre-backs."

vs
LE switched from a midfield that consisted of: DM, CM, and AM to a more balanced midfield that consists of: DM, BTB, and AM.
Both of Barcelona's full-backs will attack at the same time, allowing Messi and Neymar (both are FWs) to cut-inside whenever they please.
So which side is better?
Guardiola won 8 titles in his first 2 years
We'll see how many titles Luis Enrique will end up winning after this season. Barcelona will win la liga and La Copa del Rey (if they are up to it) and I only see Bayern as a legit threat against them in Europe.
Personally, that trashing Barcelona gave Madrid tester (4-0) was by far more humiliating than the 5-0 or the 6-2. They could have scored at least 2-3 more goals.
I honestly believe this side is better than Guardiola's.
YES just like I believe the Brazilian 1958 side was a better side than the 1970 version.
Both Barcelona 09 & Brazil 70 may have been easier on the eyes but that necessarily doesn't make them better.
